Vivek Ramaswamy ended his 2024 Republican presidential campaign this week and then endorsed the idiot who finished ahead of the shrinking GOP field in Iowa.

What, though, did the businessman call the former Liar in Chief? He called him a “patriot.” OK, I am going to dispute that label with every fiber of my being.

The GOP frontrunner is not a patriot. Pure and simple, he chastises who he says “hates America” … but he is the hater who is leading a cult cabal of haters. 

What else would you use to describe a mob that storms the Capitol Building on Jan. 6 and traipses under the Dome brandishing a Confederate flag? They did that heinous deed at the behest of the former POTUS who vowed to “take our country back,” from whom never has been clear to me. The Stars and Bars was never seen in the Capitol during the Civil War, as it symbolizes a group of states that went to war with the United States of America.

That isn’t the act of a patriot. Nor the act of someone who reveres our government or respects the work that our nation’s founders did to write a Constitution that serves as the framework for the greatest form of government ever created.

He ain’t a patriot. Not by my sense of the word, or the sense of anyone who believes we are a great nation and those who honor any oath we take to be loyal to the nation’s government document.

The man whom Ramaswamy is backing is — in my humble view — a traitor to the nation.
